Texas Woodpeckers Georgetown Texas 1st Meeting

[Ben Roman]

Well it has taken a while to get it together but the Texas Woodpeckers club is up and running. We will be having our first meeting in Georgetown Texas at Rick Fleming's Shop. Rick happens to be a local woodmiser sawyer and has volunteered his shop and will have a demonstration on working with mesquite, filling voids with epoxy and finishing mesquite.

Date Nov 9th @ 7 30 pm.

I will post the address and directions shortly. PM me if you will be attending my LOML is making coffee and cookies for the meeting and we need a head count.

Hi guys, I just joined the forums and I live in Austin. I'm interested in attending any future meetings so please keep me posted. Is there something I have to do to join the club, or can anyone attend? I'm just starting in woodworking so I have basically zero experience but I'm eager to learn.

[Ben Roman]

Not a problem. We just had our December meeting but I have your email now for our next one.

And Welcome to the Creek!!!

Ben

Hello to all of you in Georgetown. Wow, it sure is getting to be a small world. My father grew up in Georgetown. My grandmother lived on Main Street for many years. We used to visit her every summer. Georgetown is a very nice place, but I'm sure that I wouldn't recognize it today.
